Random Thoughts Thursday.

Happy Thursday to you! Yes, it is the day that we rant, rave and just talk about the randomness! Because we can. So feel free to grab a snack, cup of coffee and/or vino (depending on what time it is) and let’s hop to it!

–People that talk to you when you have headphones on. I am not understanding what the logic is in this?? I mean, literally just walk up to you and start talking like I am not blasting music in my ears. At least be polite and kind of gauge if I can hear you or not before you start blabbing at the mouth about whatever it is that you want. Manners…thank you.

–Are you a snooze button fanatic? I think it is a tease to be able to take like a 5 or 10 minute nap after pressing the snooze button. Because for some reason 5 minutes always turns into 45 and then I am late for everything. I would rather just go to bed early then get up when the alarm goes off to start my day. Seriously, going to bed early is probably one of my favorite things in life. Hashtag life in your 30s.

–Is it boujee to want to have a maid to clean my apartment? For real, I feel like I need a cleaning lady at least once a month just to kind of keep things tidy during my busy work weeks. My problem is I like running more than cleaning my apartment. HA…just take care of the basics for me and we will be fine.

–I feel like every runner on Instagram must have paparazzi follow them around all day to take these incredible action shots of them running. Either that or a pretty epic self timer? I’m totally guilty of using the self timer a time or three.

–My GPS has an Australian accent and I think it is the best thing ever. I like the Australian lady better than the British one. Specifically because the British lady tells me to get on the “slip road” when I’m approaching the highway and it makes me uncomfortable. I think the term slip road is awkward. And kind of sounds dangerous? I would rather just “proceed to the ramp” like the Aussie lady says.

–My obsession with YouTube is very real. I cannot even tell you the last time I turned on my tv other than to watch Real Housewives. There is plenty of ridiculousness on YouTube for me to look at and be entertained for hours. Like a kid on Christmas morning. Well, except for when there are commercials.

What are some random thoughts you have this week?! I want to hear it all.

The other day, I was just having the housecleaning conversation with some folks. I get that folks are super busy with their lives, but I think that it’s a bit boogie . . . for me. But, it does not bother me when other folks have have house cleaners. I do not know if this sentiment comes from me growing up in a blue collar type environment. Or, if I’m too cheap to pay someone to clean up my own mess. Or, if it’s the fact that I don’t like strangers touching my stuff when I’m not home. When I go to hotels, I put the do not disturb sign on my door for my the duration of my stay because I do not want housekeeping touching my mess.

On one vacation in the DR, housekeeping thought I was dead/missing because I had the ‘do not disturb’ sign on my door for most of my trip. When I spoke to concierge, the person told me hotels/resorts worry when someone have “DND” sign on their doors for an extended period of time, because people often commit suicide in their rooms. I guess it makes sense, because no one would bother you. BUUUUUT, I would I spend a bunch of money to commit suicide in a beautiful resort? I’d much rather spend a few bucks and do it at a Motel 6 or something.
